Shell and Tube Oil Cooler
Shell and Tube Oil Coolers are a type of heat exchanger commonly used in industrial applications to cool oil. These coolers consist of a series of tubes (tube bundle) enclosed within a cylindrical shell. The hot oil flows through the tubes, while a cooling fluid (usually water or air) circulates around the outside of the tubes within the shell. Heat is transferred from the oil to the cooling fluid, lowering the temperature of the oil. This design is efficient for high-pressure and high-temperature applications due to its robust construction and ability to handle large volumes of fluid.
